The talk was organized by Parecon Finland and Aalto University as part of Aalto University Master\'s program on Creative Sustainability. About Robin Hahnel Professor Hahnel is professor emeritus from the American University in Washington, and currently he is a visiting professor in the department of economics at Portland State University. More: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robin_Ha... About Parecon Finland Parecon Finland aims to help bring issues of democracy and environmental sustainability more into the focus of discussion on economy and economics in Finland. The organization writes commentaries, organizines events and talks and publishes material related to such key issues as market reforms, local economies, climate change and political and economic democracy.

Bla Bla Bla Bla. We need to do this, we need to do that. Talk , talk, bla bla, complaints, proposals, bullshit, no action. They've been dawdling for 40 years. Meanwhile, CO2 keeps going up and up and 3rd world humans keep breeding like rats. Face it, governments can't agree to do nuttin' that's going to change the situation. The Earth is doomed. Mass extinctions and billions of humans are going to starve to death!

There is no doubt that modern science is driven by the desire for research grants and fame. The days (a century ago) when individuals put forward new science and were heeded are long gone. Now it is "group think" and personal competition that rule the nest - or should I say nest egg?
If anything is to change it will be a long term process, probably ruled more by public opinion influencing political voting than by the whims of journal editors who know what would put them out of a job if published. An example:
The following scientists have supported the hypothesis that planetary surface temperatures are primarily determined by the gravitationally induced temperature gradient and not by direct solar radiation (if any) reaching the base of the troposphere and any solid surface there:
1. Josef Loschmidt, a 19th century physicists who was first to estimate realistically the size of air molecules, thus leading to the Kinetic Theory of Gases from which the Ideal Gas Law and Loschmidt's gravito-thermal effect are each derived.
2. James R. Holton who wrote the book “An Introduction to Dynamic Meteorology” (second edition), Academic Press, New York, 1979.
3. Dr Hans Jelbring (with a PhD in climatology) who had a peer-reviewed paper on this published in "Energy and Environment" in 2003.
4. Drs Nikolov and Zeller who wrote a paper on the "Unified Theory of Climate" in 2011.
5. Douglas Cotton and many who have agreed with the hypothesis in his 2013 paper and book, such as John Turner (retired physics educator), professional members of a climate group he addressed and presumably most of over 70 who have "liked" his comments on LinkedIn, the world's largest network of professionals. This hypothesis extends the work of the above scientists in that it uses the Second Law of Thermodynamics to explain the required thermal energy transfer mechanisms.
Data from Venus, Uranus, Neptune and other planets, as well as Earth support the hypothesis overwhelmingly.
The hypothesis is documented in the paper linked at https://itsnotco2.wordpress.com which has been subjected to peer-review in open media for over three years without any correct refutation. Also in that paper is a study supporting the hypothesis which explains why water vapor cools rather than warms the surface of Earth. -
So where does Planned Obsolescence come into this? How can we discuss creating a sustainable economy without pointing out that PO has been going on for decades?
